What Paul loves most is the idea of explaining this tattoo to his grandkids, when Windows 98 is so outdated as to be completely obsolete. The knowledge that this tattoo's subject will certainly become outdated was key to inspiring Paul's decision to make something so indefinitely fleeting so indelible. As was the idea of taking something so mundane and using it in such a way usually reserved for subjects the wearer deems important. Truth is Paul doesn't love Windows 98, and Paul doesn't hate Windows 98, Paul doesn't really give a fuck about Windows 98 one way or another.

The guts of it is; Paul wanted this Tattoo because it goes against the norm, it is not an image that one would see and instantly consider appropriating as a tattoo. It encourages people to think and ask questions, not necessarily ask Paul questions, but question what they currently think or know about Tattoos. That's what good art does; it stirs conversation within the audience. The same goes for all other art forms, painting, film, music... You may not like it, you may not understand it, the important thing is that you're thinking about it, you're not just a passive viewer. All art has an intended audience, its very possible that what you are looking at, watching, or listening to …wasn't made for you.
